Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 523
In 1978, two corpses were discovered in the sea off Guatemala. Hooded, bound with ropes and weighted down with heavy engine parts, Chris Farmer and his girlfriend Peta Frampton were thrown from a yacht on which they had been crewing. This is the gripping account of how Chris's family painstakingly gathered evidence against the boat's Californian skipper, Silas Duane Boston, working alongside the FBI, Interpol, and police in the UK and the USA. Almost four decades later in 2015, there was a major breakthrough in the case when, using Facebook, Chris's sister Penny tracked Boston down.

Surprising - tragic story well told
Revisado: 12-12-21
Despite living in Nor Cal . I’d never heard of this case (s) absorbing story well worth a listen - especially as it’s included and free. Give it a bit of time to get into the story and I also found that listening at 1:2 was optimal. No spoilers but links to GSK etc maddening police behavior. As the author states it’s a roller coaster - recommended.

After standing at Donald Trump’s side on Election Night, Cliff Sims joined him in the West Wing as special assistant to the president and director of White House message strategy. He soon found himself pulled into the president’s inner circle as a confidante, an errand boy, an advisor, a punching bag, and a friend. This is the story of what it was really like in the West Wing as a member of the president’s team. It's a story of power and palace intrigue, backstabbing and bold victories, as well as painful moral compromises, occasionally with yourself.

The C lister's revenge
Revisado: 02-01-19
I've read most of "the" books- I thought this might be interesting because he names names at least. It is still a bit of a yawn even with the narrator, when he voices Trump, making him sound calm and reasonable. Unintentional hilarity. Cliff still has a crush on D despite everything. Covers really nothing of interest except Spicer's ego. Rob Porter's wife beating. Kushner is smart and talented don't ya know! Skips over the lying of convenience and all the shady stuff. Still, I did listen to the end. ( at 1.5 speed) .... can't really recommend ..so much mediocrity.

Shep Knacker has long saved for “The Afterlife”: an idyllic retreat to the Third World where his nest egg can last forever. Traffic jams on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway will be replaced with “talking, thinking, seeing, and being” — and enough sleep. When he sells his business for a cool million dollars, his dream finally seems within reach. Yet his wife Glynis has concocted endless excuses why it’s never the right time to go.

I have become a big fan of MS Shriver. Her books are hilariously dark and witty. the narrator really performed well and brought these very plausible characters to life. especially interesting given the recent health care debate.
